Hey guys, I’m stumped on this one. CSV Writer is adding a blank line/carriage return when I export TXT files using UTF-8 encoding. I’ve tried other encoding and they all do the same thing. I’ve attached screenshots of my last node before CSV Writer (and the result in Notepad). I’ve tested this by manually deleting the last line of the txt file, running it back through my workflow, and the new line gets added. [screen2] [screen1] Any ideas?

Hi @siperwrx This topic was recently brought up as well in another thread: [image] CSV Writer creates an extra blank row KNIME Analytics Platform Hi @pedrocapri , It’s more or less common convention in the computer world to end files with a newline, so I’d consider this intended behavior slight_smile I’d simply suggest a script to strip it away after writing to the file system? Here’s an example on my NodePit Space: Essentially it calls the following script: var path = Paths.get("/path/to/file.txt"); var content = Files.readString(path); Files.writeString(path, content.trim()); HTH, Philipp Maybe the solution posted there could be of use for you?
